I had the sleeve 5/18/20 and I am returning to work tomorrow. I also am starting my soft solids tomorrow and am wanting to meal prep and need lunch ideas. Do y’all have any suggestions!?

2 oz. carved chicken or turkey breast, 6 triscuit wheat crackers (low fat version), 6 cheese squares (cracker size), mandarin oranges, soft, well cooked carrots.

Cottage cheese, avocado, refried beens, Greek yogurt, tuna salad, chicken salad, banana.

Bari hit the nail on the head,,, can soups or pre made tuna packets come through in a pinch always come through in a pinch, Pudding cups ect

I made up slow cooked casserole type dishes & minced meat dishes with some vegetables. I froze small serves in ziplock bags. Just grabbed a bag in the morning & microwaved at work. Soups are also great. Took them in a small thermos. I also put protein powder in a shake container & if I felt hungry I’d make it up - never felt hungry but it was handy just in case. Soft fruits like pawpaw (papaya), apple purée, preserved peaches make good snacks too.

Soft foods should still be pretty mushy with a soft bite. No hard edges & nothing that is crisp or crunchy or takes a lot of chewing.
